Shu Lea Cheang probes the commodification of pleasure in the tale of a robot programmed to accumulate sexual experience for a corporation, in an explicit cyberpunk fantasy set to techno grooves.

In a post-AIDS future of 2060, mutated AIDS viruses give birth to ZERO GEN: humans who have evolved in a unique way, producing a 21st century hypernarcotic code-named DELTA, which diffuses through skin contact and creates an addictive high. When the ZERO GEN are declared illegal, a new war on drugs begins, waged by drug-resistant replicants dispatched by the government. But immunity breaks down for one of these government androids, revealing a tangled plot involving underground drug lords, a scheming corporation, and a corrupt government.
Join us for a Q&A with cinematographer James Carman moderated by Alexandra Juhasz, Distinguished Professor of Film at Brooklyn College, following the 7pm screening on Saturday, June 22.
